This is the thread to discuss/advertise local or relatively unknown bands that you think need a bit more publicity.
The Butterfly Effect immediately come to mind - easily one of the best Australian bands of the past 10 years IMO. JBT are right up there too

A bit of a genre change here, but I'll nominate Shifter. I saw those guys opening for Black Sabbath and they were much more impressive than Down. A bit of a genre change here, but I'll nominate Shifter. I saw those guys opening for Black Sabbath and they were much more impressive than Down.

Way to generalise. You would so know about the whole Australian music scene at the age of fifteen.

A: never said i did you twat
B: I'm sick of all the Australian musicians, or sportspeople being called "our Casey" or "Our Missy Higgins" by the media, so do you have a problem with me hating Australian music purely for that fact? If you do, then you need to learn to accept that people will have stupid opinions and just because you say "oh that's stupid" it won't change anything.
